Faith

Certain existential questions have boggled each one of us at least once in our life time. I believe, a man who is haunted by such questions is on the verge of starting his journey towards finding the Ultimate Truth of Life. Till the time we don’t trouble the comfort of our minds, we can’t possibly understand certain very important facts of life. For example... the importance of Faith.

Most of us earthlings are trapped in the earthly affairs of money and power. Just recently, I heard an aged experienced man say that everything in this life can be traced back to one thing: ‘how can I be happy?’
Hedonistic? No. Truth.

We are all here to be "happy". Yet that’s precisely what is missing in our lives.
What makes us happy? Love? friendship? money? status? appreciation? Love makes us feel beautiful... friendship satisfies our need for acceptance and sense of belongingness, Money gives us all our materialistic pleasures and status gives us the feeling that people respect us for what we are and want to be like us! Does having all this guarantee us happiness?

What then can assure us of lasting joy?

Inner happiness... cultivated through faith... faith in the Functions of Life. Faith is like that glowing light at the end of the dark tunnel you are travelling through which raises hope within you that life is going to better now. It is the sight of your mother when you were just a year old and crying your lungs out fearing everyone has deserted you! It is the first drop of rain after a dry spell. It is the patience in a farmer’s heart after toiling an entire month waiting now for Mother Nature to do her work. Faith is the key to happiness.
All of us are going through some or another problem in our life. But those who practice (and not just believe in) faith are the ones who can smile through these turbulent times and appreciate the emerging of such difficulties. Only can these people truly be grateful to the Universe for giving an opportunity to be grateful in the future for the light shown by the Almighty! After all how can you appreciate the warmth of the sun if you haven’t experienced the moonlight’s chills?

Cultivate faith my fellow beings.....

Lets create a strong collective unconscious that can produce a phoenix ........ one that merges all of us into one... back again.
